Overview

Discover the rich history of Birmingham, Alabama, on a guided tour that takes you through the city’s most iconic landmarks. Visit Arlington House, our only remaining plantation house in the city limits. The Alabama Theatre, a beautifully restored 1927 film palace, and the Lyric Theatre and learn about its role in the city’s cultural history. Explore the Civil Rights District, where pivotal events of the Civil Rights Movement took place, including the 16th Street Baptist Church and Kelly Ingraham Park. Finally, marvel at the beautiful architecture of the Vulcan Park and Museum, home to the world’s largest cast iron statue.

Please note that this tour does not include the interior of the 16th street Baptist Church or The Alabama and Lyric Theatres.

This 3 – 4 hour tour gives the best overview of the history of the Magic City.
